Rose Has a
New Living
by John Musser
Collegian Sports Editor
-Its been a long summer, but not
quite as long as the Pete_Rose fiasco
has lasted.
Unfortunately, it appears Rose's
problems are far from over, as he
faces a federal grand jury investigation
for possible tax evasion on income
from gambling and promotional
appearances.
If thats not enough to keep Petey
up at night, perhaps the fact that his
good name has been mentioned during
the drug and tax-evasion trial of
Tommy Gioiosa, a friend of Roses,
will.
doubt that any of this bothers
Rose, who was seen pushing
autographed balls, bats and plaques on
a Cincinnati cable network several
hours after receiving his lifetime
banishment from baseball. I guess
he's got to make a living somehow.
-Chris Even has said that this U.S.
Open will be her last tennis
tournament ever so that she can
concentrate on her home life with her
husband Andy Mills.
While Chrissy may no longer be at
the top of her game, she certainly
hasn't lost too much of her world
class ability.
What a story it would be if she
could win just one more time.
-In case you didn't notice, Jimmy
Connors is nearing the end of his
exciting career, though he has yet to
say when he might retire.
After his straight set drubbing of
Stefan Edberg on Monday night, it
could be awhile.
-Is Mario Lemieux worth his brand
new five-year, $l2 million contract?
Pittsburgh Penguins owner Edward
Debartolo Sr. certainly thinks so.
In fact, he gave Lemieux a
$lOO,OOO bonus in June that covered
the amount Lemieux lost when
Wayne Gretzky was voted most
valuable player by the Professional
Hockey Writers' Association.
Obviously, Mr. Ed thinks the MVP
award was given to the wrong person.
He's right.
-Do aluminum bats iritate you or
what?
-For those of you new to the Erie
area, prepare yourself for an exciting
winter with the Erie Panthers hockey
club.
The Panthers, members of the East
Coast Hockey League, will once
again be coached by Ron Hansis, who
guided his team to the ECHL regular
season championship last year.
Adding to the excitement will be
the fact that Erie is now an affiliate
for the New York Islanders. This
means that Panthers fans can expect
to see four or five Islanders' prospects
get their seasoning in the Erie Civic
Center.
-Do you know what else Bo
knows? Money.
-After Nolan Ryan retires, if he ever
retires, his pitching arm should be put
on display at the
That
Institute of Things That Defy All
Logic.
In case you have forgotten, Ryan
was written off as washed up several
years ago by most everyone in
baseball. Ryan is presently on a pace
to get more than 300 strikeouts this
year.
Not bad for being washed up.
